Hey I just started the game after finishing TB and I am a huge fan of ur work, but I just wanted to let you know that in the first conversation with Phillip the dialogue about the side doors being locked and going together to the back door repeats twice, but with slightly different wording. I wasn't sure if you were aware of this or not! But I just wanted to let you know! Thanks for making great games:)
Thanks for the info! Could you let me know if you downloaded your Repeat file before or after August 4th? I believe I reuploaded the build with a fix for this issue already but I’ll check if it’s not working properly.
Sorry got not responding earlier! I just got so caught up in ur game, but I downloaded the game on the day that I left the comment, so after August 4! Thanks for your work, this game has become one of my favorite vn's of all time Sissel's route was amazing, and I am so so excited to see what u do for Owen's route!
Thanks for the info. I might have missed a bug then. Could you send me a screenshot of when you see Phillip’s dialogue going wack when you get the chance? No rush, but it’d be super helpful for me to find the issue. Thanks!
Shirokoi is moving to his other VN right now, he will probably get to Owen then Philip because the Owen route is near a halfway point just have some patience.
Fuck it was so fucking heart wrenching. God, the option to repeat makes me fucking hurt. Due to how most people agreeing that timeline splits into multiple branches if different choices were made at the same crucial point, this creating new timeline. This would mean by choosing to repeat, we essentially abandoned that timeline Sissel and I can't fucking not be sad at that. I love Sissel so much! I've been playing since the start of the VN that I remember Sissel og sprite being the scrawny child compare to the hunk he is now. I don't want to abandoned him cause now there's going to be a timeline where Sissel will get heartbroken cause Euca disappeared. Though the world might did Euca the same with Jinny where any trace of him is erased while still not erasing the effect of their actions. Still, Sissel is the last person who needs this kind of treatment!
To be honest, since the end game here is to save Jinny which would then enable Euca to save himself, it might just be that. I think that wishes are the key point here, I always did feel ominous reading parts where the wishes would call Euca "wish-granter". I mean, why would they call Euca wish-granter when wishes themselves are supposed to help people achieve their wish. So, I'm kinda leaning on Euca becoming some kind of god of wish to make everything that went wrong, goes right, maybe through the combined power of the wishes. Though, I don't really want this kind of ending, it feels sad cause it might transform Euca into a wish and be erased from the lives of the other characters. But I really do think memories spilling over would be a thing, Halley pretty much given us a clue when we transfer over to Sissel route B.
not just that but after completing Sissel's route and repeat again there is ne dialog that shows a bit of bleed over its small but the very start philip call the player by their name before they should have met.
Not to mention the dialog between Halley and Euca being changed as well.
I genuinely cannot stress this enough BUT this is by far one of the best VNs I have ever played. The writing, the art, and the way characters are dealt with are SOOOOO GOOD! Usually I don't have strong emotions for games and such but this def made me cry a few times. Good job Shirokoi!
My personal theory at least for the first timeline before everything repeats is that the Sissel route was the first one but without the hindsight of time travel resulted in the first ending playing out.
My evidence is the picture with the whole group and the fact echo encourages the player to seek out Sissel.
its not much but Euca isn't the most preceptive person so Phillip and Owen's problems probably would have gone unnoticed.
None of them for the first timeline, I believe. I mean, there's like 3 or 4 "reminders" encouraging Euca to actually make that decision in time, so darkest history doesn't repeat itself. And after first one, time loop makes all routes canon.
Honestly this also makes sense for not imposing a "true timeline" for the story and the fact Echo forces the doors shut on Euca's "first" day, I would like to counter this and say that some text implies that Euca is just avoiding being alone with his thought and would be more active than that.
But overall we gotta wait and seen considering Shirokoi is like what? 1/5 of the way done? more or less depending on what he's cooking hopefully if we get another big update it adds more fuel to this fire.
I guess Shiro is trying that “all routes are canon” kind-of VN, like how Echo did. But I have a theory that the true route is being locked and can only be unlocked once you fulfill all the wishes in Sissel, Owen, and Philip route.
With the flower how they talk about the "forget me not" we can every well assume that one is Euca the player character and the flower say before the "forget me not" can be saved the others must be helped so yeah I'm sure that will possibly be an ending or the saving of Jinny either one makes sense for a conclusion.
Honestly after playing the completed Sissel route can't wait to see the end of the story just to see how the title screen changes because seeing the small details like that for some reason feel so good.
Makes me wonder what the original timeline of the game looked like how did that play out? especially when considering all the hints we currently have of what happened.
So pretty clearly coming to a timeline where Jinny survives is endgame, and dear god, I can't wait. The last things she did for her friends on sissel's route broke my heart and definitely made her my favorite character, so I hope one day everyone gets their happy ending.
It took me way too long to notice the scary amount of foresight in Owen's "amazing story", it's really cool way to handle foreshadowing. Even after rereading, I was just laughing instead of immediately realizing.
yall did anyone record the end credit of sissel’s route I was sobbing the entire time and forgot about it now I changed to an iPhone and I can’t download the game anymore 😭😭( I was on an android before but I sold the phone)
I did Sissel's route first, it is so beautiful and heart wrenching. This game gave me so much anxiety at times but I also can't get enough, I also love the subtle changes you can see if you play a second time, and the not so subtle ones, it's so amazing. You would not believe how much I cried during my first playthrough, and I'm excited for the other routes to be completed, so I can see them in their whole glory! Shiro, this is a masterpiece, as is your other game, thank you for blessing us. 🙏🙏🙏

I thought I made it pretty obvious. I've been sending flirty remarks your "way" for days now.
Thanks for the report! Adding this to my to-do list.
When I saw the end... I literally cried like a baby... Btw shiro... Can you end the Owen's route? PLEAAAAAAAAASE

I'm hoping for an ending where they can converge or some bleed over like how some characters just remember little bits here and there.

What route is canon? What you guys think?!?!?!?!

i mean. based on that ending they're all canon euca just has to go through them one by one
